AUS vs IND Live Cricket Score

10 OUT! Big wicket for India and the quick-scoring Edwards has to depart! Second wicket for Porel. He lands this on a good length outside off and Edwards is on the front foot, looking to punch. But then, the ball gets extra bounce and the batsman is unable to control his shot. Plays it uppishly and hands a simple catch to Kamlesh Nagarkoti at cover. Australia in early trouble. 52/2

5.1 OUT! Straight to the man! A short ball wide outside off, Bryant cuts it straight to Abhishek Sharma at cover! India have struck early. Australia were just threatening to break free. 32/1

11.4 OUT! Edged and taken! The innings is derailing now. A length ball outside off, moving away a touch, but not the deadliest balls in the world. Sangha just follows it and ends up guiding it to the keeper behind who dives to his right and takes a decent catch. 52/1 has suddenly become 59/3 with the main run-getters dismissed. 59/3

45.3 OUT! No century for Merlo and he eventually perishes. Australia were not getting the boundaries and Merlo decided to go for some quick runs. Landed on middle, Merlo looked to play the reverse sweep but go a top edge which went all the way to sweeper cover. Simple catch for Shiva Singh. Decent knock by Merlo, definitely not the quickest but from Australia's point of view, at least he has helped them get to a below par yet respectable total. 212/7

28.5 OUT! Beautiful over culminates into a wicket! Full and on the middle stump, Uppal looks to flick but is early into the shot, getting a leading edge back to the bowler! The change in lengths and pace have brought about the dismissal. The frustration ends for India as the 75-run stand is broken. Decent knock from Uppal. 134/4

39.2 OUT! Soft dismissal! Very important wicket again. Powerplay 3 is about to begin and this stand was about to reach the 50-mark. All set for a good platform to go big in the death. But Australia have been knocked back again by a wicket at a crucial juncture. Pretty similar to the way Param Uppal fell. Full and outside off, McSweeney looks to push it down the ground but ends up chipping it straight to Shiva who makes no mistake. The 49-run stand is broken and Australia find themselves in trouble again. 183/5

41.3 OUT! That is a super catch. He might have missed a couple today but this is a terrific take. The arm ball outside off, Sutherland looks to push it through the off side without moving his feet and gets a thick inside edge which goes right into the keeper's gloves! Very difficult catch because when the ball is coming off the inside edge, the keeper is blinded but he took it to perfection. 191/6

46.3 OUT! Number 9 is down! Seriously good work from India. A short ball outside off, Holt pulls i towards deep mid-wicket. Shiva Singh comes running in towards the ball for the catch but the ball lands short of him. It deflects away and the batsmen decide to go for the second. But Singh shows excellent awareness, quickly gets to the ball and returns a decent throw to the keeper. This time Harvik Desai does not try to be too fancy, quietly collects the ball and disturbs the bails. Holt dives in but way too late. Shiva Singh is already celebrating but the umpire still refers it upstairs. Replays only delay the inevitable. 216/9

46.1 OUT! Brilliant bowling. Full and straight, Evans backs away and then looks to go inside out but misses. Timber. This might finish off quickly now. 214/8

47.2 OUT! Australia have been bowled out with 16 balls left. Criminal offense. Full and outside off, Hadley looks to drive but misses. The keeper appeals straightaway but the bowler is not that sure. Hadley starts to walk but then realizes that the umpire has not given it out. He now waits but then the umpire raises his finger! Nice acting by Hadley, showing a shocked look but well theatre perhaps is not the best need right now. INDIA NEED 217 FOR THE TITLE! 216/10

11.4 OUT! Bowled! Stop the press. Australia have got a wicket amidst the carnage. That has gone right through Shaw's defense. Landed on a length outside off, Prithvi looks to defend, almost covering the line but the ball comes back in a long way, goes right between bat and pad and hits the timber. The Aussies are pumped up. They needed that wicket, just to stall some momentum. Only wickets can help them win as India need only 146 runs with 230 balls left in the game. 71/1

21.2 OUT! Bowled! A wicket against the run of play. With nothing going Australia's way, India manage to hand them something. A decent nut from Uppal, tossing this up over the eyeline of Gill, expecting him to dance down the track again. The batsman did come out, went for the flick but missed the line. The ball spun back in and hit the top of the bails. Had that missed the bails, the keeper would have missed it too. End of a 60-run stand and guess the two partnerships have done enough. Just 86 more needed from 172 balls. 131/2
